Abstract (en)

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for mounting connectors (e.g., 11) to printed circuit boards (10). The circuit boards are aligned with the connectors by inserting spring-loaded pins (40) through holes (30) in the board. The connectors are then mounted by inserting pegs (33) on the connector housings through the same holes (30) which include the pins. The pins are displaced from the holes as the pegs are inserted therein while alignment is maintained. <IMAGE>
